In today's post I'm sharing a Lego Star Wars Lunch that I made recently, which is one of Small Child's favourite lunches to date. It was fun to make and I was really pleased with how it turned out too.
This week has gone far to quickly, and I must admit to feeling all confused about which day of the week it is because Small Child has a day off school today (sadly no snow here, just an inset day!). I intend to thoroughly enjoy our 3 day weekend, hopefully with lots of lovely quality time with my boys. I've checked and assured myself that it is indeed Friday, so you know what that means - it's #FunFoodFriday!
As usual for my Friday blog posts, this post contains a linky. If you’ve written any foodie posts, whether it be children's meals, creative cakes, lovely lunches or a delicious recipe you’ve blogged, do feel free to join in and add your link at the bottom of the post. I try to comment on and tweet every post that’s linked up over the course of the week and I pin them all to my special Fun Food Friday Pinterest board too.
Here is today's fun food from me - as I mentioned above it's a Lego Star Wars themed bento lunch. This was a theme requested by Small Child - two of his favourite themes in one lunch box! This lunch was packed in our Lego Lunchbox, and I used the mini snack boxes too. In this lunch were some Lego block ham and cream cheese sandwiches (to make these, I cut the sandwiches into rectangles and using a round mini bento cutter cut the 'dots' from leftover bread, sticking them on with a dab of cream cheese), one small carrot and a mini cucumber, which I sliced to make more 'dots', red and green grapes skewered on lightsaber picks, a hard boiled egg, which I moulded into a Lego block (you can see full instructions for how I did it here), and a clementine, which I peeled and decorated with a Yoda cupcake ring.
I also packed some organic yoghurt in one of our reusable food pouches (not shown). Small Child absolutely loved this lunch!
